Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present and future, and through the physics, astronomy and mathematics that are the foundation of his work, most particularly his hypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structure and his theory of the ultimate multiverse. In a dazzling combination of both popular and groundbreaking science, he not only helps us grasp his often mind-boggling theories, but he also shares with us some of the often surprising triumphs and disappointments that have shaped his life as a scientist. Fascinating from first to last—this is a book that has already prompted the attention and admiration of some of the most prominent scientists and mathematicians.
“Tegmark offers a fascinating exploration of multiverse theories, each one offering new ways to explain ‘quantum weirdness’ and other mysteries that have plagued physicists, culminating in the idea that our physical world is ‘a giant mathematical object’ shaped by geometry and symmetry. Tegmark’s writing is lucid, enthusiastic, and outright entertaining, a thoroughly accessible discussion leavened with anecdotes and the pure joy of a scientist at work.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Lively and lucid, the narrative invites general readers into debates over computer models for brain function, over scientific explanations of consciousness, and over prospects for finding advanced life in other galaxies. Though he reflects soberly on the perils of nuclear war and of hostile artificial intelligence, Tegmark concludes with a bracingly upbeat call for scientifically minded activists who recognize a rare opportunity to make our special planet a force for cosmic progress. An exhilarating adventure for bold readers.” —Bryce Cristensen, Booklist (starred review)
“Our Mathematical Universe boldly confronts one of the deepest questions at the fertile interface of physics and philosophy: why is mathematics so spectacularly successful at describing the cosmos? Through lively writing and wonderfully accessible explanations, Max Tegmark—one of the world’s leading theoretical physicists—guides the reader to a possible answer, and reveals how, if it’s right, our understanding of reality itself would be radically altered.” —Brian Greene, physicist, author of The Elegant Universe and The Hidden Reality
“Daring, Radical. Innovative. A game changer. If Dr. Tegmark is correct, this represents a paradigm shift in the relationship between physics and mathematics, forcing us to rewrite our textbooks. A must read for anyone deeply concerned about our universe.” —Michio Kaku, author of Physics of the Future
“Tegmark offers a fresh and fascinating perspective on the fabric of physical reality and life itself. He helps us see ourselves in a cosmic context that highlights the grand opportunities for the future of life in our universe.” —Ray Kurzweil, author of The Singularity is Near
“Readers of varied backgrounds will enjoy this book. Almost anyone will find something to learn here, much to ponder, and perhaps something to disagree with.” —Prof. Edward Witten, physicist, Fields Medalist & Milner Laureate
“This inspirational book written by a true expert presents an explosive mixture of physics, mathematics and philosophy which may alter your views on reality.” —Prof. Andrei Linde, physicist, Gruber & Milner Laureate for development of inflationary cosmology
“Galileo famously said that the universe is written in the language of mathematics. Now Max Tegmark says that the universe IS mathematics. You don’t have to necessarily agree, to enjoy this fascinating journey into the nature of reality.” —Prof. Mario Livio, astrophysicist, author of Brilliant Blunders and Is God a Mathematician?
“Scientists and lay aficionados alike will find Tegmark’s book packed with information and very thought provoking. You may recoil from his thesis, but nearly every page will make you wish you could debate the issues face-to-face with him.” —Prof. Julian Barbour, physicist, author of The End of Time
“In Our Mathematical Universe, renowned cosmologist Max Tegmark takes us on a whirlwind tour of the universe, past, present—and other. With lucid language and clear examples, Tegmark provides us with the master measure of not only of our cosmos, but of all possible universes. The universe may be lonely, but it is not alone.” —Prof. Seth Lloyd, Professor of quantum mechanical engineering, MIT, author of Programming the Universe
“A lucid, engaging account of the various many-universes theories of fundamental physics that are currently being considered, from the multiverse of quantum theory to Tegmark’s own grand vision.” —Prof. David Deutsch, physicist, Dirac Laureate for pioneering quantum computing

This elegant book by distinguished mathematician John Milnor, provides a clear and succinct introduction to one of the most important subjects in modern mathematics.

This book consists mainly of lecture notes of some talks and courses at Mathematical Sciences Center (MSC) of Tsinghua University together with several other papers.
Since it was founded in December 2009, one of the missions of MSC has been to teach both undergraduate and graduate students important ideas, theories and results of contemporary mathematics. These lecture notes reflect this philosophy.They are expository and accessible to both students and nonexperts. On the other hand, they also contain novel ideas or presentations of important topics in mathematics. Therefore, this book is also useful to experts. Especially we would like to point out that the last paper in this book Open Problems in Differential Geometry by the third editor of this book is only the first three of many lectures given by him in both Beijing and Taipei, which can be considered as a reviewing and updating of the very influential open problem lists by him.
Besides these lecture notes from MSC, this book also contains four other papers. The first is a paper by James Milne based on his talk at the seminar "What is ..." at University of Michigan. The concept of motives is important and difficult, and the talk and this paper are attempts by an expert to explain it in concrete terms. The second is a master thesis in 2002 by Joris van Hoboken who gives a coherent and accessible exposition of the ubiquity of the important ADE classification in mathematics, which originally occurred in the classification of simple complex Lie algebras. Joris van Hoboken switched to study law right after obtaining his Master degree and is now a senior researcher at a law school. The ADE classification occurs at many different situations, and it is still a mystery whether there are some deep, intrinsic connections between them. This master thesis was never published and has been highly cited and circulated on the web.We are grateful that Dr. van Hoboken has given us permission to include it in the current book. We hope that this will make the ADE classification better known to the reader and also give a permanent record of this beautiful master thesis. The other two are reprints of papers of the third editor. The short paper A note on the distribution of critical points of eigenfunctions considered a novel question. As it is well-known, the location and distribution of the zero sets (i.e., nodal sets) of eigenfunctions of Riemannian manifolds have been extensively and intensively studied. Critical points of eigenfunctions are also special and deserve to be understood better. Analysis on nonsmooth spaces has been becoming quite important and applied to several subjects in mathematics. The paper is one of the early papers in this subject.1 Due to inaccessibility and no review of it in MathSciNet, this paper has been largely unknown. We hope that its inclusion in this book will be valuable to the reader as well.
It has been a lot of work for the speakers at MSC to write up their lecture notes. We would like to thank them, especially the four note-takers and co-authors (Hui Ma, Chun-Jun Tsai, Mu-Tao Wang, En-Tao Zhao) of the last paper in this book, for their efforts and contributions. We would also like to thank reviewers of the papers in this book for their help.
This book marks the beginning of publication from MSC and we hope and expect that future volumes will appear regularly.
